Savestate (.dss) extractor

Is there any tool/program that can open .dss files so it could be edited and repacked? I want to extract the .dsv save inside one of my savestates.

No, but if you load the .dss in a game then exit it the .dsv will be overwritten with whatever was in the savestate. (but I actually don't really like this behavior and am thinking of changing it >_>)

Oh ok, the only reason i need it is cause my pokemon save is corrupt and ive tried all the ways in the pokemon save corruption thread but nothing worked so i was thinking of unpacking the .dss file and inject a proper working .dsv into it. I guess im out of options now :cry:

just start a new game.dont rely on savestates too much and just use ingame saves often.

half of the fun in playing games are the challenges. while its your game to play, i would rather advice you to not use cheats. you will feel more fulfilled when you played and beat a game without one

Its not that i want to use cheats, i hate cheats cause they ruin the purpose of the game but because i cant save, i cant defeat N and go to other towns because they are blocked, so i have no option but to go through the blocked areas or fix ingame saves. I would love to fix it but theres currently no fix for my problem. Hopefully an update could fix it.

I was reading this topic from the beginning which led me curious to ask this question which I'm sure everyone can use for future reference.

I am using the latest DraStic for my GS4. I am playing pokemon black 2 at the moment and I am using both quick save button and in-game saving for special game events when required. If I ever buy a real Nintendo 3DS console and a r4 card or whichever card is needed to play Pokemon X or Y as well. Would it be possible to trade my pokemon or continue my game on the DS? Through any means? To be honest all I care about is my pokemon since I put a lot of time into training them.

Thanks in advance!
